The blur that is the new Season B during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is real – just two weeks remain in the abbreviated regular season. So pay attention to what’s listed below and keep an eye peeled toward playoff time:   --- In a battle of the undefeated in Class 5A, Valor Christian (11-0) handled host Regis Jesuit (9-1) 67-45 in Aurora in nonleague. The victorious Eagles enjoyed balance – [player_tooltip player_id="20228" first="Haley" last="Huard"] (PGH-Colorado 2021 No. 6 and Montana signee) had 15 points; [player_tooltip player_id="95129" first="Jenna" last="Siebert"] (PGH-Colorado 2021 No. 11, Colorado Mines) 12; and [player_tooltip player_id="210292" first="Macey" last="Huard"] (PGH-Colorado 2023 No. 2) and [player_tooltip player_id="95124" first="Kindyll" last="Wetta"] (PGH-Colorado 2021 No. 3, Colorado) 11 each.   --- Aren’t they just grand? 5A Broomfield’s [player_tooltip player_id="95128" first="Courtney" last="Wristen"] (PGH-Colorado 2021 No. 5 and San Diego signee) and 4A Erie’s [player_tooltip player_id="95135" first="Genevieve" last="Gudino"] each recently surpassed the 1,000-point mark in their careers.   --- 4A Holy Family grabbed control of the Northern League with a rousing 65-63 overtime victory over Windsor. Overlooked 2021s [player_tooltip player_id="145397" first="Tyler" last="Whitlock"] (Black Hills State signee, 22 points) and [player_tooltip player_id="116779" first="Alyssa" last="Wells"] (19) topped the Tigers. 2022s Jolie Jincek and [player_tooltip player_id="207078" first="Olivia" last="Reed"] (22 each) worked for the Wizards, who will bear watching once playoffs begin in a couple of weeks.   --- PGH-Colorado 2021 No. 9 and Miami-Dade signee [player_tooltip player_id="116758" first="Timiya" last="Guevara"] heads 5A in total points 209) and is second among big-school scoring average (20.9). It helps that she’s shooting 48 percent from 3-point land.   --- Unsung Makena Vetter, Rock Canyon, 2021, tops 5A in rebounding (11.1).   --- The score was what? [player_tooltip player_id="95224" first="Jaida" last="Redwine"] (PGH-Colorado 2023 No. 1, 18 points) and [player_tooltip player_id="95127" first="Maya" last="Whiteside"] (PGH-Colorado 2021 No. 8 and Long Island signee, 13) recently led George Washington over Abraham Lincoln. It ended: Patriots 83, Lancers 6. The 4A Pats are undefeated atop the Denver Prep.
